Worth knowing before you sign
- The step from the Pure+ S Turbo Petrol AT to the Creative Turbo Petrol MT crosses Karnataka's ₹10 lakh line: ₹17,000 more ex-showroom, but ₹32,890 more road tax, because the whole price moves from 14% to 17%.
- The Smart+ Diesel MT is ₹2,16,060 more on the road here than the Smart Turbo Petrol MT, and ₹29,060 of that is Karnataka's road tax.
- On the Tata Nexon Smart Turbo Petrol MT, Bengaluru is the dearest of the 25 states we price it in, level with Karnataka: ₹93,796 over Arunachal Pradesh.
Which Nexon to buy
Of every paid step up this ladder, Creative+ PS Dark to Fearless+ PS buys you the most for your money. In Bengaluru that step costs ₹65,928 on the road, rather than the ₹55,000 the showroom prices suggest.

- The Rs 15 lakh owner-driver cover is mandatory; this prescribed rate is what most insurers charge for the annual form.
- FASTag
- Tag cost only. Issuers add a deposit and minimum balance; dealer bundles commonly total Rs 500-600.
- Comprehensive own-damage cover
- Not in this total. Lenders require it and most buyers take it, but it has been market-priced since 2007 and varies widely with insurer, cover value and no-claim bonus, so an honest single figure does not exist. Budget for it from real quotes on top of this total.
Confirm the final figure with your dealer before paying.
